    CTG & ADAA TO OBSERVE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE WITH STAGING THE UNSTAGEABLE READING, 4/28

    Broadway World, NY
    Feb 5 2015

    In observance of the centennial of the Armenian Genocide, Center
    Theatre Group, in partnership with the Armenian Dramatic Artists
    Alliance (ADAA), will present "Staging the Unstageable: The Esthetics
    of Dramatizing Atrocity" at the Kirk Douglas Theatre, Tuesday, April
    28 at 8 p.m.

    "Staging the Unstageable" is a reading of excerpts from plays that
    dramatize in different ways the Armenian Genocide, which was the
    systematic extermination (beginning in April 1915) by the Ottoman
    Empire of its minority Armenian subjects.

    The performance will be followed by a panel discussion with notable
    guests from the Armenian community and with Los Angeles theatre artists
    who have grappled with the responsibilities of bringing historical
    tragedies to the stage. Key to the discussion are the questions -
    does theatre have a role in ensuring that communities around the world
    never forget historical sins, and how can a theatre-maker bring such
    trauma to the stage?

    Tickets for "Staging the Unstageable" are priced at $10, and can be
    purchased beginning February 18 online at www.CenterTheatreGroup.org
    or by calling (213) 628-2772. The Kirk Douglas Theatre is located at
    9820 Washington Blvd. in Culver City, 90232.

    The presentation of "Staging the Unstageable" is part of the
    DouglasPlus programming at the Kirk Douglas Theatre. DouglasPlus
    provides the flexibility to explore new work and push boundaries
    through fully and minimally staged events, workshops and readings
    and traditional and non-traditional performance configurations.
